BOSTON, Massachusetts (CNN) -- President Bush declared victory in his race for re-election Wednesday, telling his cheering supporters that "America has spoken." "We've worked hard and gained many new friends, and the result is now clear -- a record voter turnout and a broad, nationwide victory," Bush said.

Translation;
“We're really mad now! Mandate... what mandate? Bush has to reach out to us(again) and 'feel our pain'!
There's no 'closure' here cause you kicked our collective a$$es! We won't forget... no siree... we'll be in your face 24/7... NO JUDGES FOR YOU... YANKEE'S SUCK!!”

Reach out,
reach out and smack someone.

[BJClinton]

They're just making sure they have a final count for the number of votes they need to manufacture on the reservations.

[snooker]

By keeping the EV total low they can run up the flagpole the old 'he doesn't have a mandate' canard.

Ask Daschle how the election came out.

[camle]

the spin begins. wah!wah!wah!

[NTegraT]

I dunno either, but they just found 15,000 votes for Kerry somewhere to add to the Yahoo totals.
